As the elections approach, Nigerian rapper Falz has given some advice to the youth while also naming his preferred candidate.
The rapper has advised young people to avoid procrastination and making excuses for not voting, saying that it is time to decide their fate.
In an online video, Falz advised young people to disregard any discouragement from voting and instead focus on the goal of determining who rules. He also endorsed Peter Obi’s Labour Party describing the party as a “formidable third force”.
He said;
Oya election don come oooo this is my PVC, I’m sure you have yours and you are ready to vote. I don’t want to hear any of that rubbish that my vote will not count, so what’s the point of voting?
Oh God, please nobody should annoy me, this is 2023, with everything we’re going through, if there are still some people saying that, then really and truly I don’t know what is wrong with them.
Somehow, we have been able to gather momentum, unbelievable momentum for this formidable 3rd force. I say to you it is very possible, forget about all those pessimists, all those cynics that are coming to you, all those irresponsible people that apparently love to suffer and want to keep this status quo forget about those people and just focus on the goal.
The goal is that we the people this time around, have decided that we are going to choose who rules us.
